I just checked on newegg,
The cheapest nvidia 6200 either agp or PCI, all support 2038*1536.
Quickly browsing the list, they all list 2048*1536 as the maximum  
resolution


According to the nvidia website too, all 6200 chipsets support 2048*1536

The nvidia 6100 which is only found on integrated motherboard, also  
supports that resolution.
Those cards were released in 2004.

But its a moot point anyway. The question was about if the hdmi port  
on the gigabyte card supported 1080p, the answer is yes.
And you can easily say that any video card with a native hdmi port  
(being rather recent) will handle 1080 resolution easily.
No need to worry about hdmi 1.0 or 1.3b. Hdmi supported 1080p right  
from the start. Unlike what some unscrupulous salesmen claim, forcing  
you to buy expensive hdmi cables, because they wouldn't do 1080p  
otherwise.
